Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Burns: A Drama in Four Acts Robert Burns - Born January 25, 1757; died July 21, 1796. A great, but ill-fated genius. Author of his own beautiful epitaph: Is there a whim-inspiréd fool, Owre fast for thought, owre hot for rule, Owre blate to seek, owre proud to snool? Let him draw near, And owre this grassy heap sing dool, And drap a tear. Is there a bard of rustic song, Who, noteless, steals the crowds among, That weekly this area throng? O pass not by! But, with a frater feeling strong, Here heave a sigh. Is there a man, whose judgment clear Can others teach the course to steer, Yet runs himself life's mad career, Wild as the wave? Here pause, and, through the starting tear, Survey this grave. The poor inhabitant below Was quick to learn, and wise to know, And keenly felt the friendly glow, And softer flame; But thoughtless follies laid him low, And stained his name.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Robert Burns: A Pastoral of the Present and Drama of Days Lang Syne A fiction, fable - call it what you will - herein becomes a fact! We wise Americans periodically sit down and figuratively "bay the moon with howling" for An American Romance! This done, we wag our heads and wait and watch, and, when the victim our lament has lured, comes from his lair, we read his tag and note the ear-marks of the "Common Cry," and if he's of the mongrel breed that feeds on scraps and refuse stuff - the realistic carrion which so many crave whose tastes are high - or broods on second-hand and threadbare things, we greet him with a recognizing sniff and let him pass - but if he's of the Royal Lion's blood and has ideal dreams of something lying still beyond our sight, and in temerity attempts to overleap tho barrier by which we hedge him in, why then let loose the pack. We dog him down and seize and rend and tear until there is not left the wherewithal to tell tho tale! This, sad to say, is not American romance, but simple, sober, solemn fact.

Book excerpt: "Should auld acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne!" The name of Robert Burns is celebrated by millions throughout the world, yet appreciation of his poetry is often limited and distorted. This volume shows him not only as the `ploughman poet' of popular legend but as a sophisticated literary artist drawing on the resources of two languages. Extracts from Henryson, Milton, Pope, Fergusson and others help place Burns in the traditions of English and Scottish literature.
